Goal Setting for Teachers in 2025: Reflect and Innovate

In this episode of Blooming Curious, we kick off 2025 by talking about setting actionable goals instead of traditional New Year's resolutions. Edwina shares insights on the importance of reflection in teaching and the benefits of goal setting to keep students engaged and promote personal growth. We emphasise the pitfalls of reusing old lesson plans without adaptation and guide educators through reflective questions to plan for the year ahead.
Download your free Teacher's Goal Setting Planner to reflect on what worked and what didn't, and help structure your goals and keep motivation high throughout the year.
